There is nothing wrong with the layout of that road, it is the same as most main roads with a side road turning. The only way to stop incidents happening is to ban motor vehicles from using the roads.

I know I will get a lot of thumbs down for this comment but face the facts it is the road users that cause the problems not the road layout.

No it doesn't

Well, I don't think its to hard to suggest the car pulled over the path of the oncoming bike. I understand that you may wish to defend the driver or wait until the police report is finished but the picture gives a clear indication of what happened. I fail to see how the motorcycle caused this collision.

I have to agree, you can see where the bike hit the car, I also know this road well and have seen some close calls, I've even seen the aftermath of when this happened between 2 cars at this very junction.
